Ingredients

 Orange1
 Lemon1
 Olive oil1/4 Cup (16 tbs)
 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
 Hot pepper sauce2 Drop
 6 quarter-size slices fresh ginger, minced
 Cilantro sprigs1/3 Cup (16 tbs), minced
 One 14 3/4-ounce can salmon, drained
 Scallions3 , minced
 1 cup fine unseasoned dry bread crumbs
 Eggs2
 Dry mustard1 Teaspoon
 Black pepper1/4 Teaspoon

Directions

1. Grate the orange and the lemon to yield 2 teaspoons each of zest. Halve the orange and lemon, then juice one orange half and one lemon half. Remove the peel and as much of the bitter white pith as possible from the un-juiced orange and lemon halves. Cut the peeled orange and lemon into bite-size pieces.
2. In a small bowl, combine the orange and lemon zests, juices, and pieces. Stir in 2 tablespoons of the oil, the soy sauce, hot pepper sauce, and half of the ginger and cilantro.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the salmon, scallions, and the remaining ginger and cilantro, and toss to break up the salmon and distribute the ingredients.
4. Add the bread crumbs, eggs, mustard, and pepper, and thoroughly combine. Form the mixture into 4 patties about 4 inches across.
5. In a large skillet, warm 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the salmon patties and cook until golden on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the patties over, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, and cook until golden on the second side, about 3 minutes. Serve the patties with the sauce on the side.
